Uniform and Presentation Reminders: For boys, hair should be cut so that it is out of their faces and does not cover their shirt collar. Girls should wear their hair pulled back. If your child has lost their Madison vest, contact Miss Monica to order a new one. Vests are a requirement of the Monday formal uniform. Additionally, students in Nursery through 9th grade are expected to wear white shoes with the Sports Uniform (T‑Th). Starting this week, home notes will be sent to parents if students are in violation of these policies.
